I'm wondering if there's a way to script "undocking" windows that have

The recommended way for an application to support this is to have a
"minimized" property on its windows -- set it to true to minimize a
window, and false to unminimize it. All Cocoa applications have this
property, but they call it "miniaturized" instead. For example:
tell application "TextEdit"
set miniaturized of every window to true -- minimize all the
windows.
set miniaturized of every window to false -- bring 'em all
back.
end
Thanks for the help.
I was looking for a way to dock and undock the iTunes main window with
a QuicKeys/AppleScript hot key shortcut. iTunes supports "minimized"
but not "miniaturized". "Minimized" produces a small iTunes control
panel rather than docking the window. I found that iTunes supports a
"collapsed" property which will dock and undock a window.
It sure would be nice if the terminology were standardized!
